A few days ago I expressed to my friend that I desired a sword for quote, "doing sweet sword moves duh."

Today I bought a sword. A Polypropylene training sword, not a decorative one.
I'm committed. I know one move with a busted broomstick already 😂
But seriously, I think it'll be a cool hobby/leisure exercise. (In addition, I really want to get back into to lifting weights!)
And there are a couple HEMA groups nearby my town if I ever decide to really go for it. The membership fees seem very reasonable.

Ooh, a sword! That does seem like it would be pretty good exercise. Aren't they pretty heavy?

I'm really excited for it, watching my package tracking like a hawk.
I bought a one hander so it's probably going to be on the lighter end of swords, around 2 pounds. Still, waving it around is gonna be good exercise. But I'll have to get back into weight lifting or else I'll probably end up with only one ripped arm 😅
